Abstract:
al-Mūjaz fī al-ṭibb, a compendium of medicine by Ibn al-Nafīs, Abū al-Ḥasan ʻAlāʼ al-Dīn ʻAlī ibn Abī al-Ḥazm al-Qurashī al-Mutaṭabbib (1210 or 1211-1288), an illustrious and prolific scholar of the 13th century and a prominent physician and a practical and experimental medical researcher who refused to accept the previous medical opinions of Greek and Muslim scholars (including Galen and Avicenna) without proof and to whom is attributed the discovery of the micro cardiovascular system. He was born in Damascus, Syria but lived and worked in Cairo, Egypt. He depended in his treatment of illnesses mostly on nutritious foods rather than medications. The present manuscript is an abridgement and explantion of Avicenna's al-Qānūn fī al-ṭibb "Canon of medicine" (excluding the chapters on anatomy and physiology) based on his own observations and experimentations. Copied by al-Muhadhdhab al-Musayyijī on Monday 22 Rajab, 745 (29 November, 1344). Place of copying not mentioned, probably Egypt

Abstract:
al-Qanūn fī al-ṭibb, a comprehensive manuscript on Arabic medicine by al-Ḥusayn ibn ʻAlī ibn Sīnā (980-1037), commonly known by the Latinized version of his name Avicenna who was born near Bukhara in Persia (present-day Uzbekistan). Avicenna was the most famous and influential of the many Islamic scholars, scientists, and philosophers of the medieval world. He was foremost a physician but was also an astronomer, chemist, geologist, psychologist, philosopher, logician, mathematician, physicist, and poet. His al-Qānūn fī al-ṭibb (Canon of medicine) became the authoritative reference on medicine in the Middle Ages, not only in the Islamic world but, in Latin translations, in Europe as well. Presented in this manuscript is the second half of al-Qānūn fī al-ṭibb (from al-fann 11 "the 11th art" of the third book to the end of the fifth book). The whereabouts of the first part of the Canon are not known.The colophons indicate that the copy was copied in 1055 H (1645/1656) in the city of Shīrāz, Iran by Muḥammad Qulī al-Shīrāzī al-muʻallim. The manuscript was a gift of Harvey Cushing (1869-1939), a Yale-educated neurosurgeon, whose collection of rare medical books forms a key part of the Medical Historical Library in the Harvey Cushing/John Hay Whitney Medical Library, Yale University
